/>Tough times are hitting all of us, but Ryanair, Europe’s largest discount air carrier is contemplating having its passengers pay to use its in-flight toilets.

Ryanair raised its net income forecast on Dec. 2 for the year ending March 31 to 50 million euros ($63 million), citing that the falling price of oil has more than compensated for the lower fares it’s offering to stave off a drop in traffic. Passenger numbers rose 11 percent in January from a year earlier as many flocked from higher priced carriers to the cut-rate Ryanair.

Ryanair already makes half its income on ancillary income made from baggage charges, beverage charges, etc. It is difficult to believe that the few euros earned from charging for use of the facilities would be worth its while. This idea is sure to leave passengers pretty peeved.
